LXRY Attends: The TWIFF Party At Fairmont Royal York Hotel

Last night we attended The TWIFF Party at The Fairmont Royal York Hotel, where hundreds attended for the kick-off of the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival.

TIFF, Twitter Canada, and Omega Group partnered up to bring stars, Toronto celebrities and well-dressed people alike to the high-ceilinged Imperial Room and Library Bar of the beautiful Fairmont Royal York Hotel.

This was the first ever TIFF pre-festival, social media party for Toronto and cameras and smartphones were flashing, bringing the lights, camera and action to the main floor of the famous Fairmont Royal York Hotel.

First Impressions:

We entered in on the east entrance and walked down the corridor to the entrance of the main lobby. People from Dubai were checking in, food was enjoyed at Royal York’s own EPIC restaurant, and it set the scene of class before heading into the red velvet-roped event check-in.

We walked up to the high-ceilinged lobby where stylish individuals posed for pictures in front of the repeating photo wall and mingled with the heads of the event, who looked sharp, as always.

Upon the arrival, beautiful backdrop and surrounding of this lobby lead us in to the two-levelled Library Bar, where they received their drinks from the bar and turned around to their social circles to mingle with their well-dressed company.

Entering now into the grandiose Imperial Room, the ceilings seem to keep going as your eyes followed the columns that held strong this beautifully-detailed room. The bars were well-stocked, the people were friendly (service with a smile is always important), and the attendees enjoyed wine, mixed drinks or a drafted pint.

One of the best things about this particular event was the company around the room. A great mix of young professionals, entrepreneurs, investors, social media emperors, and talented individuals from music, radio, and TV that filled up each of the massive three rooms.

The colours seem to bounce off the massive walls and ceilings and danced around the outfits of many ones who were dressed to kill.

Suit and tie combinations, brilliant and gleaming dresses and heels were met by people of the same dress code.

Thank you goes to everyone at the Omega Group for the invite and thank you to Twitter Canada, TIFF, and Fairmont Royal York Hotel for hosting and having this event to kick off TIFF!
